Kate / KDevelop Sprint

[Dominik Haumann]

Well,

same procedure as every year: Over the years, it turned out that the joint
Kate/KDevelop sprints are always quite productive, and a lot of things get
done. Imo, we should continue this collaboration.

Arriving at KF5 with a release soon (Applications release on 17th of Decem-
ber), Kate 5 will be officially out the first time. We certainly will get
much more feedback (and bugs) than right now in the coming months. A sprint
from the Kate POV makes a lot of sense. Further, Christoph and myself
recently discussed that having proper support for OS X and Windows would
also be desirable. I think we should push here more, maybe making it even
a joint Kate/KDevelop/KDE on Windows sprint.

The organization involves
- finding a date, e.g. through a doodle poll (I would propse 8 days, with
  starting at a Friday to Sunday a week later)
- communicating with the KDE e.V. for financial support and getting the
  sprint listed on http://sprints.kde.org
- finding accommodation (preferably an apartment where all contributors
  are hosted)

Any takers for organizing such an event?

Greetings,
Dominik
